Qualifying Records Displays the available AFU records.
Show All Displays all records in the loaded AFU file.If you clear this check box, the table displays only the functions available that can be processed by the conversion.
AFU Name column Lists the AFU loaded to the model.
Record Name column Lists the record identifier.
Function Type column Lists the function type (Frequency, Time, and so on).

Generate Displacement Computes the displacement from the velocity function
Time (Rigid Drifting) Correction Available when Generate Displacement is selected.NonePermits rigid body motion.Zero-MeanRemoves rigid body effects in the results.
Output
Output Setting Specifies how the software should write the resulting data in the AFU file.AppendAppends the new function to an existing function.OverwriteOverwrites an existing function with the new function.Other AFUSelects a new AFU to save the function.
